Millennials don't feel any different emotions than any other generation. They just have more platforms to express it and let it out.He wanted to come here, so not against his will, but its got to be tough to be in his situation.
I don't think OBJ is a head case or a bad teammate, but I do feel he is extremely emotional in a very Millennial way that is new to sports. That being said, I don't think this is a bad thing at all, but it makes sense from what I see on the sidelines, with the press, etc. Lebron who is a media master is starting to show huge signs of cracking.
My point between media and social media its almost impossible for these guys to ever get away and be normal citizens even just for a couple of days. I honestly feel bad for Odell. I hope things settle down for him and he enjoys the Cleveland market. Unfortunately because of huge strides we have made as a team, Odell and the rest of the team will be on a much more national stage which comes with allot of the assholes in the press which they try to avoid when they can.
Good luck Odell, and hide till the next pre season camp if you must. None of us need to hear from you, us fans are good, and most of us agree, fuck the press.
Guarantee you previous generations were filled with emotional folks. You just only had so much newspaper space to make it known to the public.
